FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to polypeptides comprising an amino acid sequence which is an analogue of SEQ ID No: 2 (pramlintide), pharmaceutical compositions comprising these polypeptides, and these polypeptides for use as medicaments.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

A large and growing number of people suffer from diabetes mellitus and obesity. Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder in which the ability to utilize glucose is partly or completely lost.

A number of treatment regimes target excessive blood glucose whereas others are focused primarily on weight reduction. The most efficient anti-diabetic agent used to lower blood glucose is insulin and analogue(s) thereof. It has been known for a long time that when traditional insulin is used to treat diabetes, it is associated with an increase in body weight. Insulin has to be injected subcutaneously up to several times per day.

Type 2 diabetes is generally treated in the early phases with diet and exercise. As the condition progresses, various oral anti-diabetic agents are added. Injected agents such as GLP-1 analogues may also be used at this stage. In general, these agents are most efficient in patients with functioning beta-cells capable of releasing insulin and amylin.

Human amylin (SEQ ID No: 1) is a 37 amino acid long polypeptide which has physico-chemical properties that make its use as a drug troublesome. In particular, it has a tendency for fibrillogenesis, i.e. the formation of fibrils, in vitro and/or ex vivo and becomes ineffective due to precipitation. Additionally amylin is difficult to formulate as it is chemically unstable and it precipitates at physiologic pH. Therefore it is formulated in acidic solution.

Human amylin binds to two distinct receptor complexes. These two complexes contain the calcitonin receptor plus a receptor activity-modifying proteins, RAMP1 or RAMP3. From the close relationship between the calcitonin receptor and the amylin receptor some cross-reactivity to the calcitonin receptor may be expected of amylin receptor agonist. As an example pramlintide has some affinity to the calcitonin receptor but is 14 times more potent on the amylin receptor.

The calcitonin receptor is found in many tissues throughout the body and it is believed to be involved in regulation of bone metabolism. Salmon calcitonin is currently sold under the tradename Miacalcic®. The product is used against hypercalcaemia, osteoporosis (including post-menopausal osteoporosis and glucocorticoid-related osteoporosis), ostitis derformans (Pagets disease) and is administered once daily either by injection or nasally. The calcitonin is bound to specific receptors in the membrane of the skeleton, the kidneys and in the central nervous system (CNS). The plasma half-life for salmon calcitonin is about 45 minutes.

Polypeptides with activity at the calcitonin receptor could be useful in the treatment of hypercalcaemia, osteoporosis, Pagets disease, obesity or obesity related diseases as well as in the prevention of obesity related diseases. A drawback of the treatment with currently used calcitonin preparations are that, due to the short plasma half-life for salmon calcitonin, the drug has to be administered several times a day and has to be administered immediately before a meal.

Polypeptides with dual activity at both the calcitonin receptor and the amylin receptor may be advantageous.

Pramlintide (SEQ ID No: 2) is a drug product marketed by Amylin Pharmaceuticals as Symlin® for the treatment of diabetes as an add-on to insulin. Pramlintide is an amylin receptor agonist. It is approximately 14 times less active on the calcitonin receptor.

The chemical structure of pramlintide is presented below and also in FIG. 1.

Pramlintide is chemically unstable at neutral pH and it is therefore provided in an acidic solution. Compared to human amylin, the amino acids in position 25, 28 and 29 in pramlintide are substituted with proline. This modification reduces the tendency of the protein for fibrillogenesis. Pramlintide has a very short plasma half-life and therefore has to be injected two to three times daily

WO2010046357 and WO2009034119 disclose polypeptides comprising amylin analogues having an albumin binding residue (called amylin derivatives therein). Even though these polypeptides with albumin binding moieties show improved pharmacokinetic (PK) or pharmacodynamic (PD) properties compared to pramlintide, they may still show poor physical stability under certain conditions.

Pramlintide has a disulfide bridge between the two Cys residues and a C-terminal amide group. This structure is shown below and also in FIG. 1.

Herein, SEQ ID No: 2 and pramlintide may be used interchangeably.

The term “calcitonin” means salmon calcitonin or human calcitonin.

The term “salmon calcitonin” or “sCT” means the native protein sequence of salmon calcitonin as disclosed in Niall et al (1969), Biochemistry vol 64, FIG. 2. Salmon calcitonin is a polypeptide which consists of 32 amino acids. It has a disulphide bridge between the first and seventh amino acids at the amino-terminal end of the polypeptide chain, the disulfide bridge being essential for its biological activity, and a prolinamide group at the carboxyl terminal amino acid.

The term “human calcitonin” means the native protein sequence of human calcitonin as disclosed in Niall et al (1969), Biochemistry vol 64, FIG. 2. Human calcitonin is a polypeptide which consists of 32 amino acids. It has a disulphide bridge between the first and seventh amino acids at the amino-terminal end of the polypeptide chain, the disulfide bridge being essential for its biological activity, and a prolinamide group at the carboxyl terminal amino acid.

The term “analogue of amylin” or “amylin analogue” as used herein refers to a variant of SEQ ID No: 1.

The term “analogue of pramlintide” or “pramlintide analogue” as used herein refers to a variant of SEQ ID No: 2.

For instance, said variants include, but are not limited to, one or more substitution and/or one or more deletion and/or one or more addition of any one of the amino acid residues for any natural or unnatural amino acid, synthetic amino acids or peptidomimetics and/or the attachment of a substituent to any one of the natural or unnatural amino acids, synthetic amino acids or peptidomimetics at any available position.

The variant may have the same number of amino acid residues as pramlintide (i.e. 37). Alternatively, the variant may comprise less amino acid residues than pramlintide. Alternatively, the variant may comprise more amino acid residues than pramlintide. In some embodiments, the variant has the same number of amino acid residues as pramlintide (i.e. 37). In some embodiments, the variant includes substitutions of any one of the amino acid residues for any natural or unnatural amino acid, synthetic amino acids or peptidomimetics and/or the attachment of a substituent to any one of the natural or unnatural amino acids, synthetic amino acids or peptidomimetics at any available position.

The polypeptide may comprise one or more amino acid substitutions. Hence, for some embodiments, the number of amino acid substitutions in the amylin analogue may be at least one. Preferably, the number of amino substitutions is between one and fifteen, more preferably between one and twelve, more preferably between one and ten, more preferably between one and five, more preferably between one and three.

The number of amino acid insertions, additions, deletions, or substitutions may be at least 1, but up to 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10 amino acid insertions, additions, deletions, or substitutions may be present. The substitution or addition can be with any natural or unnatural amino acid, synthetic amino acids, peptidomimetics, or other chemical compounds. The addition or deletion of amino acid residues can take place at the N-terminal of the peptide and/or at the C-terminal of the peptide.

When used herein the term “natural amino acid” is an amino acid (with the usual three letter codes & one letter codes in parenthesis) selected from the group consisting of: Glycine (Gly & G), proline (Pro & P), alanine (Ala & A), valine (Val & V), leucine (Leu & L), isoleucine (Ile & I), methionine (Met & M), cysteine (Cys & C), phenylalanine (Phe & F), tyrosine (Tyr & Y), tryptophan (Trp & W), histidine (His & H), lysine (Lys & K), arginine (Arg & R), glutamine (Gln & Q), asparagine (Asn & N), glutamic acid (Glu & E), aspartic acid (Asp & D), serine (Ser & S) and threonine (Thr & T). If, due to typing errors, there are deviations from the commonly used codes, the commonly used codes apply. The amino acids present in the polypeptides of the present invention are, preferably, amino acids which can be coded for by a nucleic acid.

If the analogue contains either more than 37 amino acid residues or less than 37 amino acid residues then the skilled person can still align that sequence with the sequence of pramlintide (SEQ ID No. 2) to determine the placement number of the corresponding, respective amino acid residue. A suitable alignment program is “needle”, which is a Needleman-Wunsch alignment. The alogorithm for this alignment program is described in Needleman, S. B. and Wunsch, C. D., (1970), Journal of Molecular Biology, 48: 443-453.

In the numbering sequence of SEQ ID No: 2, and according to established practice in the art, the amino acid residue at the N-terminal (Lys) is assigned no. 1 and subsequent amino acid residues are numbered consecutively, ending at the C-terminal with tyrosine assigned no. 37. Therefore, generally, any reference herein to position number of an amino acid residue provides its location in a 37 amino acid sequence; said 37 amino acid sequence being an analogue of pramlintide. For example, a reference to an analogue modified at position 14 may refer to an analogue wherein the 14th amino residue out of the 37 amino acids in the analogue has been modified.

In other words, the amino acid sequence numbering of the analogue provides the position of each analogue with respect to a 37 amino acid sequence, wherein the numbering is consecutive and ascending in the direction from the N-terminal to the C-terminal.

Analogues may be described by reference to the number of the amino acid residue in pramlintide or human amylin which is modified, i.e. by its position, and the nature of the modification. The following are non-limiting examples of appropriate analogue nomenclature.

For example:

[Glu14]-pramlintide designates an analogue of SEQ ID No: 2 (pramlintide) wherein the change from pramlintide is the substitution of Asn at position 14 with Glu.

[Glu14,Arg17,His35]-pramlintide designates an analogue of SEQ ID No: 2 (pramlintide), in which the Asn at position 14 has been substituted with Glu, the Val at position 17 has been substituted with Arg, and the Asn at position 35 has been substituted with His.

As a still further example, des1 (or Des¹) in relation to an analogue of pramlintide refers to an analogue in which the N-terminal amino acid, Lysine, has been deleted. An analogue of pramlintide, where the N-terminal amino acid has been deleted may also be designated des 1 pramlintide.

[Pro25, Pro28, Pro29]-human amylin designates an analogue of SEQ ID No: 1 (human amylin) wherein the modifications from human amylin are that the Ala at position 25 and the Cys at positions 28 and 29 have all been substituted with Pro. This polypeptide is pramlintide. Accordingly, it will be understood that pramlintide is an analogue of human amylin. Thus, ‘analogues of pramlintide’ and ‘analogues of amylin’ may be used interchangeably.

As is apparent from the above examples, amino acid residues may be identified by their full name, their one-letter code, and/or their three-letter code. These three ways are fully equivalent.

The expressions “conforms to”, “corresponds to”, “a position equivalent to” or “corresponding position” as used herein may be used to characterise the site of modification in an analogue of pramlintide by reference to SEQ ID No: 2. Equivalent or corresponding positions are easily deduced, e.g. by simple handwriting and eyeballing; and/or a standard protein or polypeptide alignment program may be used, such as “needle” which is a Needleman-Wunsch alignment. The algorithm is described in Needleman, S. B. and Wunsch, C. D., (1970), Journal of Molecular Biology, 48: 443-453, and the align program by Myers and W. Miller in “Optimal Alignments in Linear Space” CABIOS (computer applications in the biosciences) (1988) 4:11-17. For the alignment, the default scoring matrix BLOSUM62 and the default identity matrix may be used, and the penalty for the first residue in a gap may be set at −10 and the penalties for additional residues in a gap at −0.5.

The polypeptide may comprise one or more substituents on one or more of the amino acid residues. Such polypeptides may also be called pramlintide derivatives or amylin derivatives.

The term “substituent” as used herein means any suitable moiety bonded, in particular covalently bonded, to an amino acid residue, in particular to any available position on an amino acid residue. Typically, the suitable moiety is a chemical moiety.

For some embodiments, the substituent comprises a linker.

For some embodiments, the polypeptide has a substituent on one amino acid residue, which amino acid residue is either the amino acid residue in the N-terminal residue or the amino acid residue is a Lysine.

For some embodiments, the polypeptide has a substituent on the N-terminal amino acid residue bound via the α(alpha)-amino group of the N-terminal amino acid residue.

For some embodiments, the N-terminal amino acid residue is Lysine and the polypeptide has a substituent on the N-terminal amino acid residue bound via the ε(epsilon)-amino group of the lysine amino residue.

For some embodiments, the polypeptide is extended by addition of a Lysine residue at the N-terminal and the polypeptide has a substituent on the N-terminal amino acid residue bound via the ε-amino group of the lysine amino residue.

For some embodiments, the polypeptide is extended by addition of an amino acid residue at the N-terminal and the polypeptide has a substituent on the N-terminal amino acid residue bound via the α-amino group of the N-terminal amino acid residue.

As used herein, the term “hydrocarbyl” refers to a group comprising at least carbon and hydrogen that may optionally comprise one or more other suitable substituents. Examples of such substituents may include hydroxy, alkyl, halo, alkoxy, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, amino, aminoalkyl or a cyclic group. In addition to the possibility of the substituents being a cyclic group, a combination of substituents may form a cyclic group. If the hydrocarbyl group comprises more than one carbon atom then those carbon atoms need not necessarily be linked to each other. For example, at least two of the carbon atoms may be linked via a suitable atom or group. Thus, the hydrocarbyl group may contain heteroatoms. Suitable heteroatoms will be apparent to those skilled in the art and include, for instance, sulphur, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus and silicon. In one embodiment the hydrocarbyl group is selected from the group consisting of an alkyl group, an alkenyl group, an alkynyl group, an aryl group, a heteroaryl group or a cycloalkyl group, each of which may be optionally substituted. Examples of such substituents may include hydroxy, alkyl, halo, alkoxy, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, amino, aminoalkyl, or a cycloalkyl group.

As used herein, the term “alkyl” includes both saturated straight chain and branched alkyl groups which may be substituted (mono- or poly-) or unsubstituted. Preferably, the alkyl group is a C₁₋₂₀ alkyl group, more preferably a C₁₋₁₅, more preferably a C₁₋₁₀ alkyl group, more preferably a C₁₋₈ alkyl group, more preferably a C₁₋₆ alkyl group. Particularly preferred alkyl groups include, for example, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, iso-propyl, n-butyl, sec-butyl, iso-butyl, tert-butyl, n-pentyl, n-hexyl, n-heptyl and n-octyl. Suitable substituents include, for example, hydroxy, alkyl, halo, alkoxy, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, amino, aminoalkyl, or a cycloalkyl group.

As used herein, the term “cycloalkyl” refers to a cyclic alkyl group which may be substituted (mono- or poly-) or unsubstituted. Suitable substituents include, for example, hydroxy, alkyl, halo, alkoxy, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, amino, aminoalkyl, or a cycloalkyl group.

As used herein, the term “alkenyl” refers to a carbon chain containing one or more carbon-carbon double bonds, which may be branched or unbranched, and substituted (mono- or poly-) or unsubstituted. Preferably the alkenyl group is a C₂₋₂₀ alkenyl group, more preferably a C₂₋₁₅ alkenyl group, more preferably a C₂₋₁₀ alkenyl group, more preferably a C₂₋₈ alkenyl group, or more preferably a C₂₋₆ alkenyl group.

By using the term “γGlu” or “gGlu” or gammaGlu or gamma-L-Glu is meant an amino acid with the following structure (also shown in FIG. 2):

By using the term “γGlu-γGlu” is meant moiety with the following structure:

By using the term “γGlu-OEG” is meant a moiety with the following structure:

By using the term “γGlu-OEG-OEG” is meant moiety with the following structure:

The term “epilson amino group” or “ε-amino group”, used herein in relation to lysine, refers to the amino group at the 6 position, using the IUPAC standard numbering conventions. The term “alpha amino group” or “α-amino group” refers to the amino group at the 2 position, using the IUPAC standard numbering conventions. We refer to the following structure (also shown in FIG. 3).

The term “albumin binding moiety” as used herein refers to any chemical group capable of binding to albumin, i.e. has albumin binding affinity. In one embodiment the albumin binding moiety is an acyl group.

In some embodiments, preferably the albumin binding moiety is an acyl group selected from:

-   -   (a) CH₃(CH₂)_(r)CO—, wherein r is an integer from 4 to 24;     -   (b) HOOC(CH₂)_(s)CO—, wherein s is an integer from 14 to 20, for         example 16 or 18.

“Albumin binding affinity” may be determined by several methods known within the art. In one method the compound to be measured is radiolabeled with e.g. ¹²⁵I or ³H and incubated with immobilized albumin (Kurtzhals et. al., Biochem. J., 312, 725-731 (1995)). The binding of the compound relative to a standard is calculated. In another method a related compound is radiolabeled and its binding to albumin immobilized on e.g. SPA beads is competed by a dilution series of the compound to be measured. The EC₅₀ value for the competition is a measure of the affinity of the compound. In a third method, the receptor affinity or potency of a compound is measured at different concentrations of albumin, and the shift in relative affinity or potency of the compound as a function of albumin concentration reflects its affinity for albumin.

The polypeptides of the present invention exhibit good potency. The term “potency” is used to describe the effect of a given compound in assays where a sigmoidal relationship between log concentration and the effect of a compound has been established. Furthermore, the response should be variable from 0 to 100%. EC(effective concentration)₅₀ can be used to describe the concentration of a given compound yielding a response of 50% in the assay, such as in the functional assay.

The polypeptides of the present invention exhibit good activity. The term “activity” refers to the ability to reduce appetite and/or increase satiety. The activity can be measured by the ability to reduce appetite as e.g. described in the Assay (I) herein.

The polypeptides of the present invention exhibit good physical stability. The term “physical stability” of a polypeptide according to the invention, or a formulation thereof refers to the tendency of the polypeptide not to form biologically inactive and/or insoluble aggregates as a result of exposure to thermo-mechanical stresses and/or interaction with interfaces and surfaces that are destabilizing, such as hydrophobic surfaces and interfaces. Physical stability of the aqueous polypeptide formulations may be evaluated by means of visual inspection, ThT fibrillation assay (sometimes referred to as a ThT fibrillogenesis assay) and/or turbidity measurements as described elsewhere herein. Visual inspection of the formulations is performed in a sharp focused light with a dark background. The turbidity of the formulation is characterized by a visual score ranking the degree of turbidity for instance on a scale from 0 to 3 (a formulation showing no turbidity corresponds to a visual score 0, and a formulation showing visual turbidity in daylight corresponds to visual score 3). A formulation is classified physical unstable with respect to protein aggregation, when it shows visual turbidity in daylight. Alternatively, the turbidity of the formulation can be evaluated by simple turbidity measurements well-known to the skilled person.

The polypeptides of the present invention exhibit good chemical stability. The term “chemical stability” of a polypeptide according to the invention or of a formulation thereof refers to no chemical covalent changes in the polypeptide structure hence avoiding the formation of chemical degradation products with potentially less potency and/or potentially increased immunogenic properties compared to the parent (native) polypeptide structure. Various chemical degradation products can be formed depending on the type and nature of the parent polypeptide and the environment to which the polypeptide is exposed. Elimination of chemical degradation can most probably not be completely avoided and increasing amounts of chemical degradation products is often seen during storage and use of the polypeptide formulations as well-known by the person skilled in the art. Most polypeptides are prone to deamidation, a process in which the side chain amide group in glutaminyl or asparaginyl residues is hydrolysed to form a free carboxylic acid. Other degradations pathways involves formation of high molecular weight transformation products where two or more polypeptide molecules are covalently bound to each other through transamidation and/or disulfide interactions leading to formation of covalently bound dimer, oligomer and polymer degradation products (Stability of Protein Pharmaceuticals, Ahern. T. J. & Manning M. C., Plenum Press, New York 1992). Oxidation (of for instance methionine residues) can be mentioned as another variant of chemical degradation. The chemical stability of the polypeptide formulation can be evaluated by measuring the amount of the chemical degradation products at various time-points after exposure to different environmental conditions (the formation of degradation products can often be accelerated by for instance increasing temperature). The amount of each individual degradation product is often determined by separation of the degradation products depending on molecule size and/or charge using various chromatography techniques (e.g. SEC-HPLC and/or RP-HPLC).

The term “stabilized formulation” refers to a formulation with increased physical stability, increased chemical stability or increased physical and chemical stability compared to an aqueous solution of the polypeptide.

Process

The production of polypeptides such as amylin or analogues thereof is well known in the art. The polypeptides of the invention can thus be produced by classical polypeptide synthesis, e.g. solid phase polypeptide synthesis using t-Boc or Fmoc chemistry or other well established techniques, see e.g. Greene and Wuts, “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis”, John Wiley & Sons, 1999. The polypeptides may also be produced by a method which comprises culturing a host cell containing a DNA sequence encoding the polypeptide and capable of expressing the polypeptide in a suitable nutrient medium under conditions permitting the expression of the polypeptide. For polypeptides comprising non-natural amino acid residues, the recombinant cell should be modified such that the non-natural amino acids are incorporated into the polypeptide, for instance by use of tRNA mutants.

Pharmaceutical compositions containing a polypeptide according to the present invention may be prepared by conventional techniques, e.g. as described in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 1985 or in Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 19^(th) edition, 1995.

The formulation may further comprise a buffer system, preservative(s), isotonicity agent(s), chelating agent(s), stabilizers and/or surfactants. The use of such excipients in pharmaceutical compositions is well-known to the skilled person. For convenience reference is made to Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 19^(th) edition, 1995.

In one embodiment the pharmaceutical formulation is an aqueous formulation, i.e. formulation comprising water. Such formulation is typically a solution or a suspension. In a further embodiment of the invention the pharmaceutical formulation is an aqueous solution.

The term “aqueous formulation” is defined as a formulation comprising at least 50% w/w water.

Likewise, the term “aqueous solution” is defined as a solution comprising at least 50% w/w water, and the term “aqueous suspension” is defined as a suspension comprising at least 50% w/w water.

In another embodiment the pharmaceutical formulation is a freeze-dried formulation, whereto the physician or the patient adds solvents and/or diluents prior to use. In another embodiment the pharmaceutical formulation is a dried formulation (e.g. freeze-dried or spray-dried) ready for use without any prior dissolution.

By “dried form” is intended the liquid pharmaceutical composition or formulation is dried either by freeze drying (i.e., lyophilization; see, for example, Williams and Polli (1984) J. Parenteral Sci. Technol. 38:48-59), spray drying (see Masters (1991) in Spray-Drying Handbook (5th ed; Longman Scientific and Technical, Essez, U.K.), pp. 491-676; Broadhead et al. (1992) Drug Devel. Ind. Pharm. 18:1169-1206; and Mumenthaler et al. (1994) Pharm. Res. 11:12-20), or air drying (Carpenter and Crowe (1988) Cryobiology 25:459-470; and Roser (1991) Biopharm. 4:47-53).

In a further embodiment of the invention the buffer is selected from the group consisting of acetate, carbonate, citrate, glycylglycine, histidine, glycine, lysine, arginine, dihydrogen phosphate, hydrogen phosphate, phosphate, and tris(hydroxymethyl)-aminomethan, bicine, tricine, malic acid, lactic acid, succinate, maleic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, aspartic acid or mixtures thereof. Each one of these specific buffers constitutes an alternative embodiment of the invention.

In another embodiment of the invention the formulation further comprises a pharmaceutically acceptable preservative. In a further embodiment of the invention the formulation further comprises an isotonic agent, e.g. propylene glycol, mannitol or glycerol. In a further embodiment of the invention the formulation further comprises a chelating agent.

In another embodiment of the invention the formulation further comprises a stabilizer. The use of a stabilizer in pharmaceutical compositions is well-known to the skilled person. For convenience reference is made to Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 19^(th) edition, 1995.

Aggregate formation by a polypeptide during storage of a liquid pharmaceutical composition can adversely affect biological activity of that polypeptide, resulting in loss of therapeutic efficacy of the pharmaceutical composition. Furthermore, aggregate formation may cause other problems such as blockage of tubing, membranes, or pumps when the polypeptide-containing pharmaceutical composition is administered using an infusion system.

Compositions of the invention are stabilized liquid pharmaceutical compositions whose therapeutically active components include a polypeptide that possibly exhibits aggregate formation during storage in liquid pharmaceutical formulations.

By “aggregate formation” is intended a physical interaction between the polypeptide molecules that results in formation of oligomers, which may remain soluble, or large visible aggregates that precipitate from the solution.

By “during storage” is intended a liquid pharmaceutical composition or formulation once prepared, is not immediately administered to a subject. Rather, following preparation, it is packaged for storage, either in a liquid form, in a frozen state, or in a dried form for later reconstitution into a liquid form or other form suitable for administration to a subject.

The pharmaceutical compositions of the invention may further comprise an amount of an amino acid base sufficient to decrease aggregate formation by the polypeptide during storage of the composition.

By “amino acid base” is intended an amino acid or a combination of amino acids, where any given amino acid is present either in its free base form or in its salt form. Where a combination of amino acids is used, all of the amino acids may be present in their free base forms, all may be present in their salt forms, or some may be present in their free base forms while others are present in their salt forms. In one embodiment, amino acids used in preparing the compositions of the invention are those carrying a charged side chain, such as arginine, lysine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid. Any stereoisomer (i.e., L, D, or a mixture thereof) of a particular amino acid (e.g. methionine, histidine, imidazole, arginine, lysine, isoleucine, aspartic acid, tryptophan, threonine and mixtures thereof) or combinations of these stereoisomers, may be present in the pharmaceutical compositions of the invention so long as the particular amino acid is present either in its free base form or its salt form. In one embodiment the L-stereoisomer is used. Compositions of the invention may also be formulated with derivatives of these amino acids. Suitable arginine derivatives include, for example, aminoguanidine, ornithine and N-monoethyl L-arginine, suitable methionine derivatives include ethionine and buthionine and suitable cysteine derivatives include S-methyl-L cysteine. As with the other amino acids, the amino acid derivatives are incorporated into the compositions in either their free base form or their salt form. In a another embodiment of the invention the amino acids or amino acid derivatives thereof are used in a concentration, which is sufficient to prevent or delay aggregation of the protein.

In another embodiment of the invention the formulation further comprises a surfactant. In another embodiment of the invention the formulation further comprises protease inhibitors. The use of a protease inhibitor is particular useful in pharmaceutical compositions comprising zymogens of proteases in order to inhibit autocatalysis.

It is possible that other ingredients may be present in the polypeptide pharmaceutical formulation of the present invention. Such additional ingredients may include wetting agents, emulsifiers, antioxidants, bulking agents, tonicity modifiers, chelating agents, metal ions, oleaginous vehicles, proteins (e.g., human serum albumin, gelatine or proteins) and a zwitterion (e.g., an amino acid such as betaine, taurine, arginine, glycine, lysine and histidine). Such additional ingredients, of course, should not adversely affect the overall stability of the pharmaceutical formulation of the present invention.

ASSAY (I)—Experimental Protocol for Efficacy Testing on Appetite Using an Ad Libitum Fed Rat Model

Sprague Dawley (SD) rats from Taconic Europe, Denmark are used for the experiments. The rats have a body weight 200-250 g at the start of experiment. The rats arrive at least 10-14 days before start of experiment to allow acclimatization to experimental settings. During this period the animals are handled at least 2 times. After arrival rats are housed individually for one week in a reversed light/dark phase (meaning that lights are off during daytime and on during nighttime) for two weeks. Since rats are normally active and eat their major part of their daily food intake during the dark period, rats are dosed in the morning right before lights are turned off. This set-up results in the lowest data variation and highest test sensitivity. The experiment is conducted in the rats' home cages and rats have free access to food and water throughout the acclimatization period and the experiment period. Each dose of derivative is tested in a group of 5-8 rats. A vehicle group of 6-8 rats is included in each set of testing. Rats are dosed once according to body weight with a 0.01-3 mg/kg solution administered intraperitoneally (ip), orally (po) or subcutaneously (sc). The time of dosing is recorded for each group. After dosing, the rats are returned to their home cages, where they then have access to food and water. The food consumption is recorded individually continuously by on-line registration or manually every hour for 7 hours, and then after 24 h and sometimes 48 h. At the end of the experimental session, the animals are euthanised.

The individual data are recorded in Microsoft excel sheets. Outliers are excluded after applying the Grubbs statistical evaluation test for outliers, and the result is presented graphically using the GraphPad Prism program.

ASSAY (II)—Functional Assays Assay Ana—Human Calcitonin and Amylin Receptor Assay 1. Luciferase Assay Outline

Activation of calcitonin and amylin (coexpression of calcitonin receptor and receptor activity modifying proteins (RAMP)) receptors lead to increased intracellular concentrations of cAMP. Consequently, transcription is activated by promoters containing multiple copies of the cAMP response element (CRE). It is thus possible to measure amylin activity by the use of a CRE luciferase reporter gene introduced into BHK cells also expressing calcitonin or amylin receptors.

2. Construction of calcitonin (a)—and amylin 3(a)—receptor/CRE-luc cell line.

A BHK570 cell line was stably transfected with the human calcitonin receptor and a CRE-responsive luciferase reporter gene. The cell line was further transfected with RAMP-3, using standard methods. This turns the calcitonin receptor into an amylin 3(a) receptor. Methotrexate, Neomycin, and Hygromycin are selection markers for luciferase, the calcitonin receptor, and RAMP-3, respectively.

3. Luciferase Assays

To perform activity assays, BHK calcitonin (a) receptor- or amylin 3(a)-receptor/CRE-luc cells were seeded in white 96 well culture plates at a density of about 20.000 cells/well. The cells were in 100 μl growth medium (DMEM with 10% FBS, 1% Pen/Strep, 1 mM Na-pyruvate, 250 nM Methotrexate, 500 μg/ml Neomycin, and 400 μg/ml Hygromycin). After incubation overnight at 37° C. and 5% CO₂, the growth medium was replaced by 50 μl/well assay medium (DMEM (without phenol red), Glutamax™, 10% FBS, and 10 mM Hepes, pH 7,4). Further, 50 μl/well of standard or sample in assay buffer were added. After 3 hours incubation at 37° C. and 5% CO₂, the assay medium with standard or sample were removed and replaced by 100 μl/well PBS. Further, 100 μl/well LucLite™ was added. The plates were sealed and incubated at room temperature for 30 minutes. Finally, luminescence was measured on a TopCounter (Packard) in SPC (single photon counting) mode.

Assay (II)b—Rat Calcitonin and Rat Amylin Receptor Assays

cAMP Assay Outline

Activation of calcitonin and amylin (coexpression of calcitonin receptor and receptor activity modifying proteins (RAMP)) receptors lead to increased intracellular concentrations of cAMP. In order to quantify the cAMP levels in transiently transfected cells the Adenylyl Cyclase Activation FlashPlate® Assay from Perkin Elmer was used. The basic principle of the FlashPlate® Assay is a competition between radioactive and non-radioactive cAMP generated by the cells for a fixed number of binding sites.

Detection mix was created according to manufacturers protocol and scintillation measured after 3 h of incubation on TopCounter™ (Packard).

ASSAY (III)—ThT Fibrillation Assays for the Assessment of Physical Stability of Protein formulations

Low physical stability of a polypeptide may lead to amyloid fibril formation, which is observed as well-ordered, thread-like macromolecular structures in the sample eventually resulting in gel formation. This has traditionally been measured by visual inspection of the sample. However, that kind of measurement is very subjective and depending on the observer. Therefore, the application of a small molecule indicator probe is much more advantageous. Thioflavin T (ThT) is such a probe and has a distinct fluorescence signature when binding to fibrils [Naiki et al. (1989) Anal. Biochem. 177, 244-249; LeVine (1999) Methods. Enzymol. 09, 274-284].

The time course for fibril formation can be described by a sigmoidal curve with the following expression [Nielsen et al. (2001) Biochemistry 40, 6036-6046]:

$\begin{matrix} {F = {f_{i} + {m_{i}t} + \frac{f_{f} + {m_{f}t}}{1 + ^{- {\lbrack{{({t - t_{0}})}/\tau}\rbrack}}}}} & {{Eq}.\mspace{14mu} (1)} \end{matrix}$

Here, F is the ThT fluorescence at the time t. The constant t₀ is the time needed to reach 50% of maximum fluorescence. The two important parameters describing fibril formation are the lag-time calculated by t₀−2τ and the apparent rate constant k_(app)=1/τ.

Formation of a partially folded intermediate of the polypeptide is suggested as a general initiating mechanism for fibrillation. Few of those intermediates nucleate to form a template onto which further intermediates may assembly and the fibrillation proceeds. The lag-time corresponds to the interval in which the critical mass of nucleus is built up and the apparent rate constant is the rate with which the fibril itself is formed.

Sample Preparation

Samples were prepared freshly before each assay. Each sample composition is described in each example. The pH of the sample was adjusted to the desired value using appropriate amounts of concentrated NaOH and HClO₄ or HCl. Thioflavin T was added to the samples from a stock solution in H₂O to a final concentration of 1 μM.

Sample aliquots of 200 μl were placed in a 96 well microtiter plate (Packard OptiPlate™-96, white polystyrene). Usually, four or eight replica of each sample (corresponding to one test condition) were placed in one column of wells. The plate was sealed with Scotch Pad (Qiagen).

Incubation and Fluorescence Measurement

Incubation at given temperature, shaking and measurement of the ThT fluorescence emission were done in a Fluoroskan Ascent FL fluorescence platereader or Varioskan platereader (Thermo Labsystems). The temperature was adjusted to 37° C. The orbital shaking was adjusted to 960 rpm with an amplitude of 1 mm in all the presented data. Fluorescence measurement was done using excitation through a 444 nm filter and measurement of emission through a 485 nm filter.

Each run was initiated by incubating the plate at the assay temperature for 10 min. The plate was measured every 20 minutes for a desired period of time. Between each measurement, the plate was shaken and heated as described.

Data Handling

The measurement points were saved in Microsoft Excel format for further processing and curve drawing and fitting was performed using GraphPad Prism. The background emission from ThT in the absence of fibrils was negligible. The data points are typically a mean of four or eight samples and shown with standard deviation error bars. Only data obtained in the same experiment (i.e. samples on the same plate) are presented in the same graph ensuring a relative measure of fibrillation between experiments.

The data set may be fitted to Eq. (1). However, since full sigmodial curves in this case are not always achieved during the measurement time, the degree of fibrillation is expressed as ThT fluorescence tabulated as the mean of the samples and shown with the standard deviation at various time points.

Measurement of Initial and Final Concentrations

The polypeptide concentration in each of the tested formulations were measured both before application in the ThT fibrillation assay (“Initial”) and after completion of the ThT fibrillation (“After ThT assay”). Concentrations were determined by reverse HPLC methods using a pramlintide standard as a reference. Before measurement after completion 150 μl was collected from each of the replica and transferred to an Eppendorf tube. These were centrifuged at 30000 G for 40 mins. The supernatants were filtered through a 0.22 μm filter before application on the HPLC system.

ASSAY (IV)—Determination of Solubility

The polypeptide was dissolved in water at ˜500 nmol/ml and mixed 1:1 with a series of buffers (100 mM glycylglycine pH 3.0, 100 mM glycylglycine pH 4.0, 100 mM glycylglycine pH 5.0, 100 mM bistrispropane pH 6.0, 100 mM bistrispropane pH 6.5, 100 mM bistrispropane pH 7.0, 100 mM bistrispropane pH 7.5, 100 mM bistrispropane pH 8.0). After 18 hours at room temperature the samples were centrifuged and the polypeptide concentration determined by HPLC.

ASSAY (V)—Determination of Binding to The Human Amylin Receptor

The binding assay was performed using scintillation proximity assay (SPA) beads (RPNQ0001) from PerkinElmer and cell membranes from the Amylin 3(a)/CRE-luc cells (as described in Assay (II)) were used. Membranes were prepared in the following way; the cells were rinsed with PBS and incubated with Versene for approximately 5 min before harvesting. The cells were flushed with PBS and the cell-suspension was centrifuged for 5 min at 1000 rpm. Cells were homogenized (ultrathurrax) in a buffer containing 20 mM Na-HEPES and 10 mM EDTA (pH 7.4) and centrifuged at 20.000 rpm for 15 min. The resulting pellet was resuspended, homogenized and centrifuged (20.000 rpm, 15 min) in a buffer containing 20 mM Na-HEPES and 0.1 mM EDTA (pH 7.4, buffer 2). The resulting pellet was resuspended in buffer 2 and protein concentration was measured (BCA protein Assay, Pierce). The homogenate was kept cold during the whole procedure. The membranes were kept at −80° C. until use. The assay was performed in a 384 well Optiplate (PerkinElmer) in a total volume of 40u1. Membranes were mixed with SPA beads. Final concentration of membranes 35 ng/μL final and SPA beads was 0.05 mg/well. Test-compounds were dissolved in DMSO and further diluted in assay buffer (50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 1 mM CaCl₂, 5 mM MgCl₂, 0.1% OA and 0.02% Tween20). Radioligand ¹²⁵I-rat amylin (NEX448 PerkinElmer) was dissolved in assay buffer and added to the Optiplate at a final concentration of 50 μM/well (approx. 20.000 cpm/10 ul). The final mixture was incubated with shaking at 400 rpm for 120 min at 25° C. prior to centrifugation (1500 rpm, 10 min). Samples were analyzed on TopCounter™ (Packard).

Membranes were prepared in the following way; the cells were rinsed with PBS and incubated with Versene for approximately 5 min before harvesting. The cells were flushed with PBS and the cell-suspension was centrifuged for 5 min at 1000 rpm. Cells were homogenized (Ultrathurrax) in a buffer containing 20 mM Na-HEPES and 10 mM EDTA (pH 7.4) and centrifuged at 20.000 rpm for 15 min. The resulting pellet was resuspended, homogenized and centrifuged (20.000 rpm, 15 min) in a buffer containing 20 mM Na-HEPES and 0.1 mM EDTA (pH 7.4, buffer 2). The resulting pellet was resuspended in buffer 2 and protein concentration was measured (BCA protein Assay, Pierce). The homogenate was kept cold during the whole procedure. The membranes were kept at −80° C. until use. Assay was performed in a 384 well Optiplate (PerkinElmer) in a total volume of 40 ul. Membranes were mixed with SPA beads. Final concentration of membranes 35 ng/μL final and Final concentration of SPA beads was 0.05 mg/well. Test-compounds were dissolved in DMSO and further diluted in assay buffer (50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 1 mM CaCl₂, 5 mM MgCl₂, 0.1% OA and 0.02% Tween20). Radioligand ¹²⁵I-Calcitonin (NEX422 PerkinElmer) was dissolved in assay buffer and added to the Optiplate at a final concentration of 75 pM/well (approx. 30.000 cpm/10 ul). The final mixture was incubated for 120 min with shaking at 400 rpm at 25° C. prior to centrifugation (1500 rpm, 10 min). Samples were analyzed on TopCounter™ (Packard). The IC₅₀ was calculated using (one site binding competition analysis) GraphPad Prism5 as a measure of receptor affinity.

ASSAY (VIII)—Determination of Binding to the Rat Calcitonin Receptor

The assay was performed as described above (Assay (VII)—Determination of binding to the human calcitonin receptor) with the exception that we used membranes prepared from BHK tk′ts 13 cells that were transiently transfected with the rat calcitonin receptor. The BHK tk′ts 13 cells were transiently transfected with rat calcitonin receptor using FuGENE® 6 (Roche), according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Cells were grown in DMEM with 10% FBS and 1% Pen/Strep. Approximately 48 hours after transfection, the cells were harvested and membranes were prepared.

ASSAY (IX)—pK—Determination of T½ in Mini-Pig

T½ is the terminal half-life=ln 2/λ_(z) of a compound in plasma. λ_(z) is the first order rate constant associated with the terminal (log-linear) portion of the plasma concentration-time curve and is estimated by linear regression of time vs. log concentration.

T½ values of the amylin analogues of the invention is determined by pharmacokinetic studies in male Göttingen mini-pigs from Ellegaard Göttingen Minipigs ApS and the principles of laboratory animal care are followed.

An acclimatisation period of approximately 6-10 days was allowed before the animals entered the study. At start of the acclimatisation period the mini-pigs were about 5 to 12 months old and in the weight range of 7-35 kg. The mini-pigs had two central venous catheters inserted which were used for blood sampling.

The studies were conducted in an animal room which was illuminated to give a cycle of approx 12 hours light and 12 hours darkness. The animals were housed individually.

The animals had free access to domestic quality drinking water during the study, but were typically fasted from overnight before dosing until approx 6-12 hours after dosing. The animals were weighed on arrival and on the days of dosing.

In the present studies the test substances were administered subcutaneously in approx 2 nmol/kg dose. The animals received a single subcutaneous injection. The subcutaneous injection was given on the right side of the neck, approximately 5-7 cm from the ear and 7-9 cm from the middle of the neck. The injections were given with a stopper on the needle, allowing approx 0.5 cm of the needle to be introduced. Each test substance was given to typically three but in some cases two or four animals.

A full plasma concentration-time profile, employing 12-16 sampling points, was obtained from each animal. In example blood samples were collected according to the following schedule: After subcutaneous administration:

-   -   Predose (O), 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 168         and 240 hours after injection.

In some cases also additional blood samples up to 288 hours post injection were taken.

At each sampling time, 0.5 to 2 ml of blood was drawn from each animal. The blood samples were taken via the central venous catheter.

The blood samples were collected into EDTA test tubes (i.e. Sarstedt Micro tube 1.3 mL K3E). Blood samples were kept on ice for max 20 min. before centrifugation. Plasma was separated using centrifugation (i.e. at 4° C., 10 min., 1500G) and was immediately transferred to Micronic tubes. Approximately 200 μl plasma was transferred to each Micronic tube. The plasma was stored at −20° C. until assayed. The plasma samples were assayed for the content of amylin using an ELISA assay.

The plasma concentration-time profiles were analysed by a non-compartmental pharmacokinetic analysis (NCA) using WinNonlin Professional 5.0 (Pharsight Inc., Mountain View, Calif., USA). NCA was performed using the individual plasma concentration-time profiles from each animal. T½ is the terminal half-life=ln 2/λ_(z) and was determined from λ_(z), the first order rate constant associated with the terminal (log-linear) portion of the curve, estimated by linear regression of time vs. log concentration.

ELISA Plasma Assay for Amylin Quantification

The human amylin ELISA is a monoclonal antibody-based sandwich immunoassay for determining amylin levels in human plasma. The capture antibody recognizes human amylin, amylin acid (deamidated amylin), a 1-20 fragment of amylin, but not reduced amylin. The detection antibody binds to reduced or unreduced human amylin but not amylin acid and is complexed with streptavidin-alkaline phosphatase. The substrate, 4-methylumbelliferyl phosphate, is applied to the completed sandwich and the fluorescent signal, monitored at 355 nm/460 nm, is proportional to the amount of amylin present in the sample.

MS-Method for Amylin Quantification

40 μl plasma is diluted with 120 μl 66.67% EtOH+1% HCOOH and mixed. Centrifuged for 20 min. at 13000 rpm, 4° C. The supernatant is analyzed by an LC-MS method on a Sciex API 3000 and quantitated with a standard made up in plasma

ASSAY (X)—pK—Determination of T½ in Rat

T½ is the terminal half-life=ln 2/λ_(z) of a compound in plasma. A is the first order rate constant associated with the terminal (log-linear) portion of the plasma concentration-time curve and is estimated by linear regression of time vs. log concentration.

T½ values of the amylin analogues of the invention is determined by pharmacokinetic studies in Sprague Dawley male rats, from Taconic Europe and the principles of laboratory animal care are followed.

An acclimatisation period of approximately 7 days was allowed before the animals entered the study. At start of the acclimatisation period the rats were in the weight range of 300-400 g. The rats had permanent catheters inserted in a. carotis which were used for blood sampling.

The studies were conducted in an animal room which was illuminated to give a cycle of approx 12 hours light and 12 hours darkness. The animals were housed individually due to the catheters and had food and water ad lib. The animals were weighed on the days of dosing.

In the present studies the test substances were administered subcutaneously in approx 20 nmol/kg dose. The animals received a single subcutaneous injection to the neck using a 25G needle with syringe. Each test substance was given to typically three but in some cases two or four animals.

A full plasma concentration-time profile, employing 8-10 sampling points, was obtained from each animal. In example blood samples were collected according to the following schedule: After subcutaneous administration:

-   -   Predose (0), 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours after         injection.

At each sampling time, 0.08 to 0.10 ml of blood was drawn from each animal. The blood samples were taken via the catheter.

The blood samples were collected into EDTA test tubes. Blood samples were kept on ice for max 20 min. before centrifugation. Plasma was separated using centrifugation (i.e. at 4° C., 10 min., 1500G) and was immediately transferred to Micronic tubes or PCR plates. Approximately 40 μl plasma was transferred and was stored at −20° C. until assayed. The plasma samples were assayed for the content of amylin using an ELISA assay.

The plasma concentration-time profiles were analysed by a non-compartmental pharmacokinetic analysis (NCA) using WinNonlin Professional 5.0 (Pharsight Inc., Mountain View, Calif., USA).

T½ is the terminal half-life=ln 2/λ_(z) and was determined from λ_(z), the first order rate constant associated with the terminal (log-linear) portion of the curve, estimated by linear regression of time vs. log concentration.

Preparations

The polypeptide sequences were prepared according to the below-mentioned polypeptide synthesis and the compounds as presented in the Tables (e.g. Table 10) were prepared according to the below-mentioned synthesis.

One method of polypeptide synthesis was by Fmoc chemistry on a microwave-based Liberty polypeptide synthesizer (CEM Corp., North Carolina). The resin was Tentagel S RAM with a loading of about 0.25 mmol/g or PAL-ChemMatrix with a loading of about 0.43 mmol/g. The coupling chemistry was DIC/HOAt in NMP using amino acid solutions of 0.3 M in NMP and a molar excess of 6-8 fold. Coupling conditions was 5 minutes at up to 70° C. Deprotection was with 5% piperidine in NMP at up to 70° C. The protected amino acids used were standard Fmoc-amino acids (supplied from e.g. Anaspec or Novabiochem) dissolved at 0.3 M in NMP containing 0.3 M HOAt.

Another method of polypeptide synthesis was by Fmoc chemistry on a Prelude polypeptide synthesizer (Protein Technologies, Arizona). The resin was Tentagel S RAM with a loading of about 0.25 mmol/g or PAL-ChemMatrix with a loading of about 0.43 mmol/g. The coupling chemistry was DIC/HOAt in NMP using amino acid solutions of 0.3 M in NMP and a molar excess of 6-8 fold. Coupling conditions was single or double couplings for 1 or 2 hours at room temperature. Deprotection was with 20% piperidine in NMP. The protected amino acids used were standard Fmoc-amino acids (supplied from e.g. Anaspec or Novabiochem) dissolved at 0.3 M in NMP containing 0.3 M HOAt.

Another method of polypeptide synthesis was on an Applied Biosystems 433 polypeptide synthesizer in 0.25 mmol or 1.0 mmol scale using the manufacturer supplied FastMoc UV protocols which employ HBTU or HATU mediated couplings in NMP, and UV monitoring of the deprotection of the Fmoc protection group. The starting resin used for the synthesis of the polypeptide amides was Rink-Amide resin. The protected amino acid derivatives used were standard Fmoc-amino acids (supplied from e.g. Anaspec, or Novabiochem) supplied in preweighed cartridges suitable for the ABI433A synthesizer.

When a chemical modification of a lysine side chain was desired, the lysine was incorporated as Lys(Mtt) and the N-terminal amino acid was either incorporated into the sequence as a Boc-amino acid or, if the N-terminal amino acid was incorporated as an Fmoc-amino acid, the Fmoc group was removed and the N-terminal was protected by treatment with 6 equivalents of Boc-carbonate and 6 equivalents of DIPEA in NMP for 30 minutes. The resin was washed with NMP and DCM and the Mtt group was removed by suspending the resin in neat hexafluoroisopropanol for 20 minutes followed by washing with DCM and NMP. The chemical modification of the lysine was performed by adding one or more of the building blocks listed below by the same methods as used for the polypeptide synthesis, i.e. by one or more automated steps on the Liberty or the ABI 433 or by one or more manual coupling steps at room temperature. After synthesis the resin was washed with DCM and dried, and the polypeptide was cleaved from the resin by a 2 hour treatment with TFA/TIPS/water (92.5/5/2.5 or 95/2.5/2.5) followed by precipitation with 4 volumes of diethylether, further washing with diethylether and drying. If the polypeptide contained cysteines protected with Acm groups, the polypeptide was redissolved in water at 2-5 mg/ml, pH adjusted to below 4, and the disulfide bridge formed by treatment with 4 eq. of iodine (2% w/v in methanol) for 15 minutes. Alternatively, the disulfide bridge was formed on the resin by using Trt as the protecting group for cysteine and treating with 10 equivalents of iodine in NMP for 1 hour. In this case the crude polypeptide was purified directly after cleavage and diethylether precipitation.

Purification: The crude polypeptide was purified by semipreparative HPLC on a 20 mm×250 mm column packed with either 5μ or 7μ C-18 silica. Polypeptide solutions were pumped onto the HPLC column and precipitated polypeptides were dissolved in 5 ml 50% acetic acid H₂O and diluted to 20 ml with H₂O and injected on the column which then was eluted with a gradient of 40-60% CH₃CN in 0.1% TFA 10 ml/min during 50 min at 40° C. The polypeptide containing fractions were collected. The purified polypeptide was lyophilized after dilution of the eluate with water.

For analysis of HPLC-fractions and final product RP-HPLC analysis was performed using UV detection at 214 nm and e.g. a Vydac 218TP54 4.6 mm×250 mm 5μ C-18 silica column (The Separations Group, Hesperia, USA) and eluted at e.g. 1 ml/min at 42° C. Most often one of four different elution conditions was used:

A1: Equilibration of the column with a buffer consisting of 0.1M (NH₄)₂SO₄, which was adjusted to pH 2.5 with concentrated H₂SO₄ and elution by a gradient of 0% to 60% CH₃CN in the same buffer during 50 min.

B1: Equilibration of the column with 0.1% TFA/H₂O and elution by a gradient of 0% CH₃CN/0.1% TFA/H₂O to 60% CH₃CN/0.1% TFA/H₂O during 50 min.

B6: Equilibration of the column with 0.1% TFA/H₂O and elution by a gradient of 0% CH₃CN/0.1% TFA/H₂O to 90% CH₃CN/0.1% TFA/H₂O during 50 min.

Alternatively the RP-HPLC analysis was performed using UV detection at 214 nm and a Symmetry300, 3.6 mm×150 mm, 3.5μ C-18 silica column (Waters) which was eluted at 1 ml/min at 42° C.

B4: Equilibration of the column with 0.05% TFA/H₂O and elution by a gradient of 5% CH₃CN/0.05% TFA/H₂O to 95% CH₃CN/0.05% TFA/H₂O during 15 min.

The identity of the polypeptide was confirmed by MALDI-MS on a Bruker Microflex.

The polypeptides prepared are shown in Table 10 (presented earlier):
